Hi Guys,
just coming around. Still enjoying my SGP311 alias Sony Xperia Z tablet.
It´s not the re-invention of a tablet tech but EVERYTHING WORKS out of the box.
Over 20.000 Antutu Points...CLEARLY more power which I only expected for gaming but no...even the OS runs like hell. Sure has to do with the fastest Memory I have ever seen build into a mobile device.
58,5mb/sec. READ and about 28mb/sec. write. That is of course miles ahead of a U30GT2.
Wlan reception is another dimension compared to the Cube! I can even see WLANs my FritzBox hardly recognizes. Wlan is as hoped much fast too. 2,3 mb/sec versus the 1,35mb/sec with the cube.
The Display has deeper blacks but not that much I wan´t to point out. Though the all over backlight is more accurate with the Sony the Cube has clear flashlights in corners (especially down right on mine).
Dustproof and waterproof are more marketing bla bla than really needed...though....look here

Someone said it in this forum....you get what you pay for.
The Cube is a good start for those who want good allround talent.
The Sony is way ahead...in the high end zone.
Some more words about the displays and more....both have Full HD resolution.
Touch is perfect on both but with the cube I experienced something like dead corners while gaming. Reproduceable!!! Setting the Cube to sleep and reactivation it fixes the problem always right then. Maybe another fault the Cube has.
I have a feeling that the touchscreen is affected by the heat of the chipset. But I´m just wild guessing. HEAT...yeah...which is never noticeable with the Sony btw. I LOOOOOVE the rubber back of the Sony. With the cheap plastic on the back of the cube I always get sweaty hands with time. Rubber-Sony feels much better in my hands and is definetly useful.
Accu! Sony 6000mah! Cube 7200mah! But the Sony clearly outruns the Cube.
6,25h Wlan surfing...4h high power or gaming. Standy is amazing with the stamina mode...
Doing my thing with the tablet it has not seen a power port for 3d 15h! And 38% battery left. WOOOOWW! Charging....this is where The cube is a clear winner...as I remember 4hrs and the cube is fully charged. The Sony uses 1500mA loading power so this pays off....badly...over 6hrs until that beast is full. Keeping in mind that the cube has 1200mah more accu. Cube loads at 2000mA! Bought a 2000mA loader for the Sony. Will check if it helps. The USB-Port of the Sony....I don´t like it. It´s unprecise and would be impossible to connect something to the USB-Port in the dark. Cube´s is not perfect either but still more precisely made.
SD Card! The Cube is at its end using a SDHC 32GB card.
The Sony manages to run a SDXC 64GB card out of the box and since the "S" Tablet from sony runs 128GB cards I guess it will be possible with the "Z" too or soon to be
Hope this is interesting for some of you. If you have questiones on this please do it via PM!
BTW. quick check up shows there has been new firmware V2.03 released!
